Alright guys, this is a topic I wanted to cover and get more clarity on for a while and even before my hiatus.

Both releases of tRAID and RAID-F from November 2015 should have a fix that allow shares created on both the pool and sub-folders within the pool to be remembered.In prior releases, there was an issue that prevented Windows from doing so and users were required to go to the Web UI and click on a menu option to have shared remembered.

This should no longer be needed as shares created on the pool disk as well as folders within the pool disk should be remembered.For users on the latest release where this isn't working, please post here so we can investigate as to why that is.

The option to have shared remembered will be removed from the Web UI in future releases.

On other PC in network, in file explorer, go to \\MEDIA_SERVER. A drive shows up "Z Root". Click on it and all of the contents of my Z shared drive is there.

Back on the Media Server, go into the Storage Pool configuration, click on Server Shares tab, click on Backup Storage Pool Shares. Would you like to backup your shares configurations? YES. Popup: Operation Success. Saved.

Reboot Media Server PC. Wait a while...wait forever...and drive Z is not shared. It does not show the shared icon in the Media Server PC file explorer, nor is the drive accessible from any other PC on the network.

I have a similar setup, and the same issue. My pool shares are never remembered after reboot. I'm on Windows 7, and 2.1 [Snapshot 1.1 / Storage Pool 2.0] [2015.11.01].

You can see the share name, the path, and user permissions. Then you just have to manually run that after a reboot.Not ideal but it helps as I need to set up 6 shares with slightly different permissions.There may be a better way to do it rather than have to log in to the machine. (Maybe could use the task scheduler or something) Luckily I don't reboot that often.Main problem is that if there is a server crash and auto-reboot, if I'm not there to do this, the server will come back up but without the shares ready.
